Today, while giving a presser at a turkey hatchery, Sarah Palin allowed herself to be interviewed with the backdrop of turkeys being beheaded – and bleeding out – as she spoke. This was just after she had “pardoned” another foul feathered friend.

If you do not want to watch the sanitized version of this grisly backdrop, David Schuster notes that Palin approved the backdrop herself.

#1 (tie):George W. Bush for being a liar and a neo-con tool; for vetoing the S-CHIP bill on October 3 — after having declared October 1 “Children’s Health Day”; for giving shrubbery a bad name; for his “Childrens do learn” gift with public speaking; for 3874 dead troops, and over a million Iraqi dead; and for that ever-present smirk.

#1 (tie):Nancy Pelosi, the table-phobic Speaker of the House for squandering the power given in November 2006; for failing to use her considerable influence to achieve the will of the people; and waving a dull sword in the face of a pack of rabid dogs.

#4:Alberto Gonzales for being a piss-poor attorney, lying weasel butt-kisser who stomped all over the American peoples’ right of habeas corpus, and after being called on his idiocy in Congressional hearing, failed to give habeas corpus even a moment’s thought in time for the next hearing; for having the brass balls to say “I don’t recall” 74 times in the hearing; and for his child-like visage, and a smirk that would make Ghandi’s hand twitch toward a backhand slap.

The Mainstream Media (aka So-Called Liberal Media) for being so cozy with this administration, to the point of dancing on-stage with creepy MCRove; for continuing to inflict on us the likes of Rush Limbaugh after his “phony soldiers” rants, and Bill O’Reilly for his batshit insane self-absorbed paranoia; and for entirely forgetting that the purpose of news is not profit and sensationalism, but to aid in the continuance of our democracy by keeping the citizens informed.

Ladies and Gentlemen, and all others — The Top Five Turkeys of 2007! Where’s that deep-fryer….?
